Contractor lifecycle

Step 1Initial Contact
The first hello is just the beginning of our journey together. From the moment you reach out, we're all ears, keen to understand your goals, skills, and what you're really looking for.
Step 2Assessment and Interview
We dive deep into your skills and experiences to really get you. Our interviews are as much about understanding your aspirations as they are about assessing your resume.
Step 3Opportunity identification
Using what we've learned about you, we scour our network for roles that fit your skillset and genuinely excite you in both the public and private sectors. We aim to make a perfect match.
Step 4Interview with Client
After we've found a role that seems like a great fit, it's time to interview. We prep you thoroughly so you can confidently showcase why you're the person for the job.
Step 5Offer and Negotiation
Once we find a role that ticks all your boxes, we move on to negotiating terms that reflect your true value and also engage a third-party assessment to ensure your workplace is safe.
Step 6Onboarding
First-day jitters? Not on our watch. Our streamlined onboarding process is managed by a contractor specialist who will ensure you're comfortable and equipped with what you need.
Step 7Ongoing Support
When your contract starts, the real support kicks in. A dedicated contract care consultant and our Australian payroll team are responsive and quick to help you with anything you need.
Step 8Contractual Matters
Our inhouse legal and commercial team will handle the details of your contract to ensure compliance, fairness, and transparency throughout the term of your contract.
Step 9End of Assignment
As your contract winds down, we're already looking forward to what's next, whether that’s re-engagement with the same client or a new role entirely (redeployment).
Step 10Feedback and Continuous Improvement
Once a contract wraps up, we're eager to hear your thoughts on what went great and what could be better, as part of our mission to help you grow.
